Blessing of Advent Wreath, Christmas Trees and Crib – December 2014

Fr. Con Buckley blessed our Advent wreath, Christmas trees and crib in the school hall on Thursday, 11th of December.  The whole school joined in the ceremony and sang some Christmas carols.  Eva Gadsden and Bríde Breen switched on the Christmas tree lights.
